Warm and very comfortable

I searched and thought for a long time about what to buy. I even considered paying more money just to be satisfied with the product. I was looking for something comfortable and, most importantly, warm. I have to emphasize that I use them on long mountain walks and I am very, very satisfied. They are very thin, but that does not reduce the comfort or warmth. Now we just have to see how long they will last, how they will behave after washing and prolonged wearing and wear.

Comfortable

Good warmth, comfortable and no odors thanks to Merino wool! A must have for your hikes

Ideal under ski pants

I used this product for the 2nd time last weekend while skiing. Very comfortable, a second skin that helps maintain the heat of the lower body. I 100% recommend this very good product made by Decathlon.

Disappointing and not very durable product

I bought this product in 2023 and after only a few weeks of use, significant defects appeared. Holes formed at the knees and back, and the fabric began to pill on the inside. Following my complaint, the after-sales service offered me an exchange, which I accepted. Unfortunately, after a few weeks of using the new leggings, the fabric on the right leg became loose and no longer fitted as well. Thinking that this was an isolated defect, I bought a third pair, but the same problem reappeared. This defect is particularly annoying when using the leggings as a first layer, as they do not fulfill their primary function. Although they can be worn alone, this is not their intended use. In the end, this product clearly lacks durability and quality, which is very disappointing. I do not recommend it.

Successful

Really good product, its thinness is great, there is no discomfort or stinging feeling in the pants, it keeps you warm, I have bought a long-sleeved merino underwear before, it is very successful, you never smell of sweat.

How to wash my trek 500 merino tights

Product testing

In November 2018, 8 trekkers (4 men and 4 women) and part of the Forclaz design team, tested these tights for 4 days in the southern French Alps (Lus La Croix Haute). You can expect wind, rain, a bit of snow, a bivouac... and a lot of fun! We were then able to make the final modifications and validate it for mountain trekking use.
